The course will give an overview of the structure, themes and guidance
contained in each of the 114 chapters of the Noble Qur’an. In particular, we
will be looking at
- how Surah names are related to each Surah and the historical
contexts of their revelation (Asbab al-Nuzul);
- the inter-textual relationship and coherence (Nazm) between verses
of each Surah and the relationship with preceding / following Surahs;
- cross-referencing to other parts of the Qur’an in order to
demonstrate how the “Qur’an explains the Qur’an”;
- explanation of key passages in each chapter; practical
guidance and lessons that can be derived from each Surah.
- We will also be discussing linguistic and stylistic devices
(Balaghah) used in the Qur’an, and some of the problems with translation
and having alternative plausible interpretations.
All Course materials provided, including a special HB
Arabic-English Qur'an translation and CD explanation of the whole Qur'an by
Amina Elahi (worth £30).
No prior knowledge of Arabic or Islam required.
